What to check before buying parts

Coleman's pre-ride list covers brake shoe wear and lever play, tire pressure and tread, fuel hoses, a throttle that snaps back to idle, the stop switch, oil level, chain tension and wear, and tight nuts and bolts. Diagnose first; the part you need is usually obvious after that check. The full Coleman specs are in our Coleman mini bike guide.

Tires10 psi front and rear
ClutchClean and lube every 5 hours

Carburetor and exhaust upgrades

A bigger carb and freer exhaust change the air-fuel mix, which is why the HIAORS kit ships with three main jets. Coleman's chart marks jobs like cleaning the carburetor sediment cup (every 3 months or 50 hours) as owner work only if you have the tools and knowledge to do it; otherwise use a service center.

Throttle and clutch parts

Throttle kits with a kill switch are in mini bike throttles. Many owners replace the stock centrifugal clutch with a torque converter.

What to skip

Skip parts with no listed Coleman fit when a listed one exists, and skip riding with worn brakes or a loose chain. Full intervals: mini bike maintenance schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I get parts for a Coleman mini bike?

Many CT200U and BT200X parts are sold under listings that name those models: tensioners, brake kits, 6202RS bearings, 420 chains, carbs and exhausts. Match the model on the listing to your bike.

What bearings does a Coleman CT200U use?

6202RS, 15 x 35 x 11 mm, per the YGQ listing for the CT200U and BT200X. Check your wheel before ordering.

What spark plug does a Coleman CT200U take?

An F7TC gapped at 0.6 to 0.8 mm (0.024 to 0.032 in), per the owner's manual.

Will a bigger carb fit a Coleman CT200U?

The FVRITO VM22 26 mm kit lists CT200U and BT200X fit. Expect to change jets; the HIAORS exhaust kit includes .036 to .038 in main jets.

How do I fix a loose chain on a Coleman mini bike?

Loosen the axle bolts, turn the tension nuts on both sides clockwise to tighten to 1/2 to 3/4 in of slack, retighten and re-check, per Coleman. A tensioner helps on jackshaft bikes.
